AQUILA - Aquila - EU Prog Gems Limited Edition - LISTEN - VERY RARE

A new, limited, European edition of the only album by a British band founded by the former leader and guitarist of Blonde On Blonde (on the debut LP "Contrasts"). Released in 1970 by RCA Victor, a truly excellent, slightly jazzy, progressive record that was reminiscent of the earliest recordings of East Of Eden, Colosseum, Blodwyn Pig, If and Quintessence. Complex arrangements, plenty of instrumental parts (saxophones, flute, and so on), catchy melodic themes, and finally the great, 25-minute suite filling the second side of the vinyl. Without a doubt the canon of British progressive rock. Excellent, clean sound! AN ABSOLUTE MUST! (JL)
